Grabs 16 rebounds in G League
FTexas Legends   G League (Mavericks)
November 26, 2024
Edwards produced eight points (2-12 FG, 0-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 16 rebounds, three assists and one block in 35 minutes Tuesday in the G League Texas Legends' 114-112 win over the Osceola Magic.
ANALYSIS
Edwards remains under a two-way contract with the Mavericks, but considering he's still not part of the Dallas roster even with Luka Doncic (wrist) currently sidelined, it's unlikely the parent club will call for his services unless injuries really begin to mount. He's now made two appearances for the Legends this season.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
While it can be said that Edwards made the most of his opportunities during his rookie season, his role in 2022-23 could be that of a situation-based rotation piece. The Nets come into the season with a relatively clean bill of health, meaning Edwards shifts down the pecking order quite substantially. Training camp and preseason may offer us some insight as to whether he will be an every night part of the rotation, but until then, he can be ignored basically everywhere.
Edwards was selected by the Nets with the 44th overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, and he later signed a two-way contract with Brooklyn. Edwards improved his scoring every year while at Pepperdine before averaging 17.2 points per game during his junior season. The 20-year-old shot a career-high 49.1 percent from the field and 87.6 percent from the free-throw line. The 6-foot-8 wing projects as a versatile defender at the NBA level and defended every position during the NBA Combine. The Nets are filled with star power, so it'll be tough for the rookie to crack the rotation during his first season. He'll spend much of his time in the G League while on a two-way deal.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Barely involved
FBrooklyn Nets
November 16, 2022
Edwards logged a season-high 12 minutes in Brooklyn's 30-point loss to Sacramento on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Even with Brooklyn spiraling and allowing 111.7 points per game -- third-worst in the league -- Edwards' number isn't being called. Tuesday marked his first contest exceeding five minutes played this season. The 22-year-old averaged 5.9 points and 3.6 rebounds while shooting 35.3 percent from beyond the arc last season, but it appears he hasn't earned any trust for a role thus far.
